i keep seeing "protestors" referred to again and again in ICE coverage and I wish the media would understand that is right-wing framing and just call them what they actually are which is *residents*

A starling murmuration at Tubney Fen (& my reaction). Only filmed on my phone so not brilliant quality, but experiencing awe, even from a video on a screen, has been shown to improve mental health 🪶:

Remember how I said we had plans to try to reduce Amazon wishlist dependence for our whistle printers?

We'd love to get enough polymaker gift cards so we can do a bulk buy directly from the manufacturer and get a stack of filament for an entire urban area.

Call your reps and say how unacceptable this is - these are all things DHS is *already supposed to be doing*

Call your reps, tell them it’s defund abolish and prosecute and nothing less.
Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:

End the roving patrols and racial profiling.

Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.

Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.

A friend recently bought me these Tiny Tates Gluten Free cookies and they're pretty delicious. I googled them to see where I could buy more but instead this popped up.

Gross. Evil.

I'll find another sweet treat.

And then there's LOVE LETTERS, the extremely sincere and heartfelt yearlong essay series I edited and published, about the things that keep us going even when the project of survival feels impossible. The best thing I have ever done, and maybe the best thing I will ever do.

No, you can't just separate MAGA off into their own little portion of the country because girl children aren't birthing chattel, disabled people shouldn't be euthanized, and queer people are born every day and deserve to live true lives without fear.

If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

My current WIP:
I'm walk/running on the treadmill to the same playlist every day.

It's so regulating, and the music and movement bring me so much joy.

Then I do some elevated push ups, because I want to get stronger.

Then I make my offline actions list, and do something to help.
If you are feeling anxious or burned-out because .. World Events, lean into repetition.

Read familiar books. Listen to the same albums over and over. Watch old favourite films. Knit or crochet.

You need your nervous system to heal and repetitive actions help.

Here are some ways to help Minnesota with all the essential but less visible needs.

But also, go get involved with your own community. Make new friends. Get those networks going. Learn what orgs in your city are already doing good work that needs support. Don't wait.

Did I mention that large portions of MN’s population are in hiding right now? Kids are missing school. Adults can’t go out to work. People aren’t able to buy food or pay rent, and mutual aid is all keeping everyone going. We keep us safe, on our own, and people are being shot in the street for it

The lack of training is not the problem. The School of the Americas was a training facility, and that only made death squads more efficient.
Personally I think this is too much money for Donald trumps untrained heavily armed militia
